Every pet we rescue costs $200. Thanks to our wonderful team and volunteers, we have the ability to adopt out every pet we can bring in, so our budget is the only thing limiting the number of pets we can save. Your love and generosity will fix that problem.

People Love Pets, Pets Love People.
When you love enough to help us rescue homeless dogs and cats, those pets return the love. We believe everyone’s lives are better with a loving pet. Help in our mission by adopting your next family member from Texas Humane Heroes.

Our goal at Texas Humane Heroes is to take pets from a 5% chance at life to a 100% chance at a loving home. We rescue pets from municipal shelters throughout Texas, some with save rates as low as 5%, and provide them the opportunity to give and receive love.
